For calculating and planning the trajectory of the drones, this launcher uses a Raspbbery Pi Zero 2 W along with a custom Pi hat. The custom Pi hat extends the wifi range of the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W to communicate with the LS Anchors and adds a battery for independent usage from wall outlets. Only 1 compute module should be necessary per batch of launcher units.

LSwarm-Drone-Launcher design files

The KiCad project lives in the DerpyDoggo11/LSwarm-Drone-Launcher repository on GitHub; these links point at the commit this page was built from.

LSwarm-Drone-Launcher: common questions

What microcontroller does the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher use?

The LSwarm-Drone-Launcher is built around the ESP32-C3-MINI-1U-N4, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher PCB?

The LSwarm-Drone-Launcher measures 65 × 30 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher?

51 components, from 32 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher design files?

From the DerpyDoggo11/LSwarm-Drone-Launcher repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with DerpyDoggo11. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the LSwarm-Drone-Launcher without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
